What are people’s thoughts here? I could understand removing all the lolly flavours and regulating like other tobacco products. I am an ex-smoker but I personally feel like this is govt over-reach. That might be an out-dated mindset of my time & generation (genX), however. So I’m interested to get some insight into how the broader population view this issue, particularly the younger generations, in both an overall opinion, but also in regards to such govt controls of recreational substances vs an individual’s right of freedom to choose.

I found the idea of banning vapes to be pretty hypocritical of the government.
Like the idea that we don’t want children getting addicted to nicotine is a good goal to strive towards, However to ban the only source of nicotine dependence that doesn’t get taxed by the government while leaving cigarettes alone felt really dodgy to me.
